Strawfield Pets L-Lysine Immune Support for Cats & Kittens - 200g Chicken Liver Flavor Granules with Scoop, Immune Health Supplement Cat Cold Relief, Sneezing, Congestion, Running Nose, Watery Eyes

Walter has a long history. He showed up Jan 2019 with my feral colony of 7 cats. He had two litters with the only female before I was able to trap her and had her fixed. I thought he was feral. So, Sept 2019 I trapped him and had him fixed. He was big 16 lbs. He disappeared Oct 2019 and returned Thanksgiving 2021. He would come late at night to eat and I did not recognize him. scrawny, little fur and sickly. He came 5am one morning and I followed him. Found where he was sleeping in a neighbor's garage, 3 streets from me( a long walk). Jan 6th 2022, he came to eat around noon, sat in my garage and never left. He had a terrible nose infection, lots of mucus and bleeding, and his meowing was horse and horrible. when he would sneeze, his nose bled a lot. I took him to three different Vets. One said he had a tumor in his nose. Tried several Rxs. nothing worked. To remove the tumor and treat if it was cancer was out of my pocket range. So to the L-Lysine. I read a lot about it. I gave him every am and pm. from Aug 2022. Four weeks ago the bleeding stopped, he is breathing better, meowing normal, but still has a snatty nose and would blow out some mucus now and then. He was 9lbs and diabetic when he returned. Now he is 16lbs with lots of fur. I believe that supplements do help a lot, (from personal experience) and would continue to give him this L-lysine.

I've tried five brands of powdered lysine, two brands of lysine treats, as well as the old sticky Viralys and this is mine and the cats favorite powder based on taste. I take in stray cats and calicivirus and respiratory issues are non-stop so I've been supplementing lysine for years. FLAVOR-All 9 of my cats love the flavor this brand. I mix it with canned food so I can be assured each cat gets the correct dosage. I do not sprinkle it on dry food as then I can't tell who got what. DOSAGE-this one is my favorite as it takes a much smaller scoop to deliver 900mg. The other brands of powder I've tried vary in how much powder/scoops you need to use and how much lysine you'll get. This one has the smallest amount of powder, a therapeutic level of lysine, and the best flavor. Other brands can have much less lysine and/or require larger amount of powder. I've tried two brands of chews, one has very little lysine in it and it was universally hated by the cats. The other is loved by all the cats but has a lower (500mg) amount of lysine. Between that chew and this powder they get the appropriate levels. So this is my favorite powder and my cats willingly eat it. Everyone's happy.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: So far my cat is eating his food with this mixed in it. I have had trouble with a few others that. Y cat would not eat. So far this has been my best solution for him to get his lysine.

A friend suggested this for my cat's allergies. She takes this with her allergy medicine that wasn't taking away all of her symptoms. Now she has no more symptoms. I am very please with this product.

This product may seem expensive at first glance, when you're comparing items to buy, but then with further scrutiny, you realize that it has Many more ounces per jar than most others, and if you're using a lot of it often enough, than it's worth it to spend a little more for more ounces of product. I do cat rescue, & have feral cat colonies I care for, so I do go through quite a bit of L-Lysine. The product is a finely ground powder that is naturally liver flavored for palatability & compliance. Cats can be pretty picky w/ certain flavors, but I haven't had any issue with non-compliance with this one. I highly recommend it!
